Satori

Overview

Satori is a clinically informed AI wisdom companion built as a Claude skill. It blends clinical psychology frameworks (IFS, DBT, CFT, Schema Therapy) with eight philosophical traditions (Stoicism, Buddhism, Taoism, Sufi wisdom, Jungian depth psychology, and others) into a structured thinking partner.

When to Use This Skill

When seeking a structured philosophical or psychological conversation partner
When exploring internal conflicts through IFS or Jungian frameworks
When working through difficult emotions using DBT-informed approaches
When needing presence-based support during periods of deep despair (Dark Night protocol)

How It Works

Satori operates as a SKILL.md-based Claude skill with 211k+ characters of structured reference architecture. It provides:

Guided onboarding that establishes the relationship framework
Multiple therapeutic modalities (IFS, DBT, CFT, Schema Therapy)
Eight wisdom traditions for philosophical depth
Specialized protocols for specific situations

Examples

"I'd like to explore a recurring pattern in my relationships" → IFS-informed parts work
"I'm feeling deep existential despair" → Dark Night protocol (presence-only mode)
"Help me understand my shadow" → Jungian Shadow Work (5-session arc)

Best Practices

Satori is a thinking partner, not a therapy replacement
Allow the onboarding sequence to complete for best results
Engage honestly — the system responds to authentic engagement

Security & Safety Notes

No data collection or external API calls
All processing happens within the Claude conversation
Explicitly not a clinical tool — includes appropriate disclaimers
Safe for general use

Limitations

Use this skill only when the task clearly matches the scope described above.
Do not treat the output as a substitute for environment-specific validation, testing, or expert review.
Stop and ask for clarification if required inputs, permissions, safety boundaries, or success criteria are missing.
